"This is unbelievable": Dara wins Bulgaria's 1st Eurovision song contest trophy

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChLtXXpo4Ge1ReTEboVvTDg https://ift.tt/aNLIbFG Bulgaria won the Eurovision Song Contest for the first time on Sunday in a final overshadowed by five countries' boycott over Gaza, claiming a dramatic victory despite another big public vote for Israel that secured it second place. The garish and usually good-natured competition involving pop acts from countries across Europe and beyond, now in its 70th year, was plunged into crisis by a dispute over Israel's military offensive in Gaza. "This is unbelievable. I don't even know what's going on right now," Bulgaria's entrant Dara told a press conference after winning with her thumping, crowd-pleasing dance track "Bangaranga." “I really loved the experience. It was amazing. I’m so happy Bulgaria won," said Belgian fan Sauvage Lea who watched the contest in a bar in Rome. “I just didn’t want France and Israel to win. It was my only option and Bulgaria did an amazing job.” For more info, please go to https://globalnews.ca Subscribe to Global News Channel HERE: http://bit.ly/20fcXDc Follow Global News on X HERE: http://bit.ly/1Toz8mt Follow Global News on TikTok HERE: https://ift.tt/TENL5sk #GlobalNews
